Yesterday, I missed my first Sunday of the year to spend time visiting innovative and growing churches in the Atlanta area.   In order to grow, I have to stretch my imagination and see beyond what I already know.  The visit to these churches encouraged me.   I saw churches that were reaching people of all ages in their community.

I was able to attend 5 churches, one on Saturday night, four on Sunday.    These were the churches:

Mountain Lake Church – Cummings, GA
Buckhead Church – Atlanta
Norpointe Church – Alpharetta, GA
12 Stone Church – Lawrencville, GA
New Spring Church  – Anderson, SC

Still, there is no place like CIL!   Attending these churches made me thankful for who we are, and raised my expectations on who we can become!
